I installed the deb from ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/ttf-dejavu/. The new support for the Kurdish/Arabic script is great. The hinting especially of the dots may need some improvement, but that is a known issue. Thanks to Ben for implementing. DejaVu Sans is now the first free font for linux that fully supports Kurdish with Arabic script.

The screenshot is for Kurdish with Latin script, that was never a problem ;)

Dejavu 2.7 has made it into unstable and things are happening on thefont side. I just created a new set of screenshots in [1]; everything
is pretty much the best we can do atm, apart from Arabic / Farsi (see#374720)It would be interesting to have some feedback from native speakers; I'd beparticularly interested to know how is Vietnamese displayed using Dejavu
(we don't use freefont anylonger to display it) and how non-latin languageslook like.I noticed that using experimental g-i images based on latestlibraries, everything looks more consistent, that's why I don't think
it's the right time to spend time on fixing fonts file: I think I'll givea go at font hacking once new libraries will be available.
